Detailed Description

Indian music and visual communication has developed through ages. It always incorporated western and technological influences to create new forms. Similarly, with the rise of information technology and knowledge sharing at the speed of lightening, the new forms are emerging. The idea is to look into the mentioned fields in the present scenario, cumulatively and then simultaneously. The contemporary music scene in India is an ocean itself. The rock music has also found its way and scope within a larger domain of “music from India”. The musicians are attempting to communicate not just musically but also visually. So, the research attempts to understand the philosophy of contemporary Indian Rock Bands through their Visual Identity and Representations.
